Kylian Hazard (born 5 August 1995) is a Belgian professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for Challenger Pro League club RFC Liège. He has two older brothers, Eden and Thorgan, and one younger, Ethan, all of whom are footballers.
Hazard was born in La Louvière and grew up in Braine-le-Comte. His mother, Carine, and father, Thierry, were both footballers playing in Belgium. His father spent most of his career playing as a semi-professional for La Louvière in the Belgian Second Division.[4] He played mainly as a defensive midfielder.[4] His mother played as a striker in the Belgian Women's First Division and stopped playing when she was three months pregnant with her eldest son Eden Hazard.[4][5] After playing football, both his parents became sports teachers.[4] Thierry retired from his position in 2009 in order to devote more time to his children.[4]
Kylian is the third of four children. His eldest brother, Eden, previously played for Lille in France, Chelsea in England and Real Madrid in Spain. His other elder brother, Thorgan, joined Eden at Chelsea in 2012 before moving to Borussia Mönchengladbach in 2015. Thorgan moved to Dortmund in May 2019 (summer transfer window) and had previously progressed through the youth ranks of Lille's biggest rivals Lens.[6][7][8][9] His younger brother Ethan currently plays in the youth academy of Tubize, where Eden, Thorgan and Kylian all played earlier in their lives.[4][7][10][11]
Kylian and his three brothers were raised in a comfortable environment with their parents ensuring they had whatever they needed to excel.[12] The family lived "no more than three meters" from a football training ground and the brothers often ventured onto a training pitch through a small hole in order to hone and develop their skills.[5]
Hazard began his professional career at White Star Bruxelles, joining the club in 2013 from the Lille academy where he spent two years.[4][7][10][11]
